Bias Power’s new BPWXL Series 10 Watt constant current LED driver

Bias ruggedized LED drivers are superb solutions for new indoor and outdoor LED lighting fixtures. The modules meet NEMA 6P / IP67 moisture and submersion and easily satisfy the strict requirements for outdoor architectural, building and low-bay garage LED lighting. The LED drivers are rated for 3,000VAC isolation and feature inherent over-current, short circuit (shorted string), overload and open circuit (string break) protection. All modules are specified for full-rated power over the temperature range of -40 to +85°C and operate at a nominal 80% efficiency, resulting in some of the highest lumens/watt end-to-end efficacy ratings for LED solutions in the market today.

With a footprint of only 1.3 x 1.9 inches and less than 1 inch in height, the BPWXL6 provides up to 6 Watts of output power for LED string voltages up to 21VDC. In the same package, the BPWXL4 provides up to 4 Watts of output power for LED string voltages up to 12VDC. The BPXL10 is a 10 Watt driver module for LED strings rated up to 30VDC, and has a package size of 2.1 x 2.3 inches with a height of 1.25 inch. Standard connections are 11 inch, 18AWG ‘flying leads’ and dual mounting slots for ease of installation.

BPWXL Series AC-DC constant current LED driver modules are available for immediate sampling with 4-6 week delivery for production. Pricing begins at under $15.00 in OEM quantities. Dimmable versions will be offered in the near future.
